033_p01_checa_box.jpgCarlos Checa (Althea Racing Ducati) has expressed satisfaction with the progress made on board the new 1199 Panigale Superbike during a three-day test session at Motorland Aragon. By making a series of changes throughout the three days the team was able to better understand how the bike reacts and identify the best direction to take as a result. At this point of development it is essential that the riders begin to understand the bike and that the bike is adapted to the needs and style of each rider. Checa recorded a best time of 1'58.5 in the three days, with Giugliano almost one second slower.

On track along with several other SBK teams, Ducati's technicians were able to compare the 1199 Panigale's performance to that of its rivals for the first time and have declared themselves satisfied with the work completed thus far, although there is still a lot to do over coming months. The winter testing programme will continue next month in Jerez, Spain.

Carlos Checa declared: "My impression is positive. We're still a little way off in terms of times but we are here to work on the bike and try things out to better understand what is missing and what we need to go faster. This is all a normal part of development work. The 1199 Panigale is an extreme bike and the riding style needed is different too. We are at the start of the journey; we're still in the first phase and still have a lot of work ahead of us. The 17" tyres are working well once the track is up to temperature and conditions have allowed us to get a lot of laps in during yesterday and today - the data collected will be useful as we move forward."

Der zweite Tag des Rennwochenendes in Malaysia war wie auch schon gestern von feuchten und heißen Wetterbedingungen gekennzeichnet. Nach der verlorenen Zeit im gestrigen Nachmittagstrainings, haben heute alle Fahrer der Königsklasse versucht, ihr Setup so gut wie möglich abzustimmen. Der LCR Honda Fahrer Stefan Bradl litt auch unter der verlorenen Trainingszeit und den schwierigen Wetterbedingungen, doch der Deutsche sicherte sich den achten Platz in der Startaufstellung (2’01.491).

Im Morgen-Warm-up stiegen die Temperaturen in Sepang weitaus höher als die Tage zuvor. Die Sonne wurde aber bald von dunklen Wolken verdeckt und heftige Regenschauer führten zu einem sehr nassen und dramatischen MotoGP-Rennen, welches dann sieben Runden vor Schluss mit roter Flagge unterbrochen wurde. Zu spät für LCR Honda-Pilot Stefan Bradl.

2012 WSS Champion Kenan Sofuoglu and fourth placed rider Fabien Foret will continue to ride for Kawasaki in 2013, with each joining the expanding MSD R-N Kawasaki Racing Team India set-up.

Supersport champion in 2007 and 2010, Sofuoglu picked up his third title in 2012, his first year as a Kawasaki rider, competing as part of the Kawasaki Lorenzini team. Foret won two races for his Kawasaki Intermoto Step team in 2012, proving once more that the 2002 World Champion is still a true force at the sharp end of Supersport competition.

Kenan Sofuoglu: "I will stay with Kawasaki and we will have a good future together hopefully. It is good to be part of the whole Kawasaki project now and my new riding partner is Fabien Foret. I am happy to have him as my team-mate and we should make a strong team together. We will do something new for 2013, in the new team, and they have already been on the podium in 2012, at the last race. I think all together we will make a strong team."

Fabien Foret: "I am very happy to sign with a new team, especially as they were already involved in the championship in 2012. It still feels like a new and exciting project and I will try to bring the best results I can, but I also bring my racing experience. I have a good relationship with the people in the team already. It is great to be on such a strong bike again, as the Kawasaki was the best bike this year. For next year I think I have the best position because although I am in a new team, I am staying on the same bike and I will have the same crew chief as this year. So we will be starting 2013 with the data from 2012 and one year of experience on the Ninja ZX-6R, which is an ideal situation."

Amit Sandill, Director/Team Principal MSD R-N Racing Team India N-Motorsport Limited, declared: "We at MSD R-N, soon to be MAHI Racing Team India would like to welcome Kenan and Fabien to our team. Taking motorcycle racing, at a professional level, into India is going to be very exciting as both of our riders will be involved in race schools here and we hope they will inspire our countrymen to join in this great sport. We are immensely positive and welcome both these fantastic champions on board. This will be a really beneficial move for the sport in India as well as the brand involved. This sport has a great mass appeal to the youth of India and we intend to involve them as much as possible in the growth of the sport in the country."

581583_415663625161247_1796936513_n.jpgMircea Vrajitoru, the 19 year-old Romanian rider who was involved in a dramatic crash during the penultimate round of the European Superstock 600 Championship at Portimão in September, is showing encouraging progress every day, which bodes well for the treatment he will be required to follow in the wake of the serious head injury he picked up in Portugal.

In the days following the crash, Vrajitoru was put into an induced coma by doctors at Faro Hospital, but last Friday he was finally able to return home, to Timisoara Hospital where he will continue his recovery in the coming weeks and months.

In response to medical stimulus, Vrajitoru has opened his eyes and is reacting positively to what is probably the most difficult moment of his life. He is stable, disconnected from all appliances, has no more fever and is sleeping. He needs plenty of rest so that the injuries he suffered can recover.

He is followed constantly by his family members and his brother Bogdan, who like Mircea also races for the C.S.M. Bucharest Team, but in the Superstock 1000 FIM Cup.

The doctors have said it will be a few weeks before an exact prognosis can be made regarding a full recovery from the head injury. Since 2009 the Romanian rider has been a constant presence in the European Superstock 600 Championship, and this year he scored a total of 8 points with a 12th place at the Nurburgring his best result.

An official Facebook page has been created for the Romanian rider in the last few weeks, and it can be viewed by clicking on this link: https://www.facebook.com/PaginaDeSustinereMirceaVrajitoru
